Hi. I am trying to figure out our disaster recovery strategy and could certainly use some help. we have 2 hbase clusters with data replicated across in master/slave mode. My question is if there are any drawbacks in a model where we take snapshots on the slave cluster (the replication target)

HBase Backups / Problem using Export/Import Job HBase 0.20.3 - s3n - HBase 0.90 (CDH3) DroppedSnapshotException

We've been working on a Backup / Restore program Hbacker (https://github.com/rberger/hbacker) that uses the HBase Hadoop Export/Import jobs. Its pretty tuned to our use case (we just do appends, never delete, this allows us to do very simple incremental backups). Its still really rough and

Good news! I suppose there's a risk of incoherent backup. I mean, with classical sql databases, online-backups ensure that the taken dataset can be restored in a state where all open transactions are committed. Even if the backup takes hours, the initial backuped data is finally updated to

Hi, We're trying to come up with right strategy for backing up HBase tables. Assumption is that sizes of tables will not grow beyond few hundred GB. Currently, we're employing exports (writing onto HDFS of another cluster directly), but is taking too long (~5 hours to export ~5GB of data). Are

Can you afford some down time? If so, you could minor compact, disable the table, distcp, and then enable the table. -Joey On Wed, Jun 8, 2011 at 1:22 PM, Manoj Murumkar manoj.murum...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, We're trying to come up with right strategy for backing up HBase tables. Assumption is

Hi guys, More and more data in our company is moving from mysql tables to hbase and more and more worried I am about the no backups situation with that data. I've started looking for possible solutions to backup the data and found two major options: 1) distcp of /hbase directory somewhere 2)

If you are asking about current solutions, then yes you can distcp but I would consider that a last resort solution for the reasons you described (yes, you could end up with an inconsistent state that requires manual fixing). Also it completely bypasses row locks. Another choice is using the
